Call for Test Days for Fedora 18
by Adam Williamson 20 Feb '13

20 Feb '13

Hey, folks. It's that time again - time to start thinking about Test Days for Fedora 18. For anyone who isn't aware, a Test Day is an event usually focused around IRC for interaction and a Wiki page for instructions and results, with the aim being to get a bunch of interested users and developers together to test a specific feature or area of the distribution. You can run a Test Day on just about anything for which it would be useful to do some fairly focused testing in 'real time' with a group of testers; it doesn't have to be code, for instance we often run Test Days for l10n/i18n topics. For more information on Test Days, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Test_Days . Anyone who wants to can host their own Test Day, or you can request that the QA group helps you out with organization, or any combination of the two. To propose a Test Day, just file a ticket in QA trac - full details are at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Test_Days/Create . For instructions on hosting a Test Day, see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/SOP_Test_Day_management . You can see the schedule at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Fedora_18_test_days . There are many slots open right now, with the earliest on 2012-08-09 and the latest 2012-11-01. Consider the development schedule, though, in deciding when you want to run your Test Day - for some topics you may want to avoid the time before the Alpha release or the time after the feature freeze or the Final freeze. We normally aim to schedule Test Days on Thursdays; however, if you want to run a series of related Test Days, it's often a good idea to do something like Tuesday / Wednesday / Thursday of the same week (this is how we usually run the X Test Week, for instance). If all the Thursday slots fill up but more people want to run Test Days, we will open up Tuesday slots as overflows. And finally, if you really want to run a Test Day in a specific timeframe due to the development schedule, but the Thursday slot for that week is full, we can add a slot on another day. We're flexible! Just put in your ticket the date or timeframe you'd like, and we'll figure it out from there. If you have any questions about the Test Day process, please don't hesitate to contact me or any other member of the QA team on test@ or in #fedora-qa on IRC. Thanks! -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net

# Fedora Quality Assurance Meeting # Date: 2012-07-30 # Time: 15:00 UTC (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto) # Location: #fedora-meeting on irc.freenode.net Greetings testers! Feels like just about time to have another meeting, with F18 Alpha starting to impend. (Can you start to impend? Quick, someone call the dictionary people). It's probably a good idea to discuss the status of the new anaconda UI: if anyone from the anaconda team can come along for that, it'd be a big help, thanks folks. If anyone has anything else to discuss, please propose it or bring it up in open floor. This is a reminder of the upcoming QA meeting. Please add any topic suggestions to the meeting wiki page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Meetings/20120730 The current proposed agenda is included below. == Proposed Agenda Topics == 1. F18 preparation / newUI status 2. AutoQA update 3. Open floor -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net

CANCELLED: 2012-07-23 Fedora QA Meeting

I hate to feel like I keep blowing off meetings, but hey, sticking with the 'nothing to meet about' principle, we don't need one this week either. It seems like there's been a general lack of Major Topics in QA-land lately; activating Paranoid Mode, does anyone think there are any negative reasons for this, or is it more just that things are sort of ticking along smoothly and we shouldn't fix anything that ain't broken? Opinions welcome =) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net

Looks like another week where we can skip the meeting - there's no significant ongoing business besides the anaconda new UI testing, and we've already discussed that. No-one proposed any topics. If anyone's feeling terribly sad about missing meetings, do let me know... -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net

# Fedora Quality Assurance Meeting # Date: 2012-07-09 # Time: 15:00 UTC (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure/UTCHowto) # Location: #fedora-meeting on irc.freenode.net Greetings testers! Well, we've skipped meetings for the last couple of weeks as there was nothing much to discuss, but there seem to be a few topics worth kicking around this week, so let's get the ball rolling again. Special call-outs to Bruno (for the 'blocker bug analysis' topic) and to Jóhann and Luke (for the 'Bodhi 2.0 design ideas' topic) - if it would be convenient for you folks to attend that'd be great. If none of those folks turn out to be available, it may be a short meeting! This is a reminder of the upcoming QA meeting. Please add any topic suggestions to the meeting wiki page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Meetings/20120709 The current proposed agenda is included below. == Proposed Agenda Topics == 1. Anaconda new UI testing 2. Blocker bug analysis 3. Bodhi 2.0 design ideas 4. AutoQA update 5.

Welp, once again there's nothing pressing on the agenda for this week - we did have the Bodhi issue as a potential item, but I didn't hear back from Luke. Also Monday is a holiday for me (it's Canada Day today) and I suspect quite a few in the U.S. may be taking some time off leading up to July 4. All in all, doesn't seem like there's any need for a meeting. I'll try and rope Luke in and we can pick up next week. Enjoy your Monday as much as you can without a meeting, everyone... -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net
